Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 426: Chapter 44: Forced Gathering! Powerful Experts Caught in One Net!_1

Inside the outpost treasure land, everyone was quietly waiting for the second start of the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle.

To pass the time, Wen Yu first consumed some food where he was sitting to replenish his energy, then took out the Rebirth skill scroll from his space ring and handed it directly to Tang Haofei.

Originally, the agreement stated that if the plan failed due to unforeseen circumstances, Wen Yu was required to return this skill to the military. A breach of the contract would result in a penalty of only 100 physique points. But Wen Yu had personally promised the military, and for an SS-level skill, there was no need for him to compromise his integrity and persistence.

In truth, after Lin Haifeng established the plan to probe the Dominator, he hadn’t even thought of giving these two skill scrolls to Wen Yu and Kasu for free!

Tang Haofei nodded at Wen Yu and directly stored away Rebirth.

The military trusted Wen Yu’s integrity.

While everyone inside the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle treasure land was bored, outside, the Dominator began to move.

The Dominator’s aim was simple. Since he was playing, he decided to make a big move: seize this opportunity to gather all the powerful experts who hadn’t entered the sequence due to various unforeseen circumstances, ensuring none were left out! At the same time, the number of military sequence members would be reduced. However, whether the new sequence members would be won over by the military after this Sequence Member-Ranking Battle was something beyond the Dominator’s consideration. As for the method of Gathering All these individuals for the sequence, the Dominator had many means available, especially when it came to controlling professionists.

Yanjing Assembly Site, 100 meters below the ground at the military research institute.

This place was originally one of the sites for the Cathay Rebirth Plan, but after the apocalypse began, the Rebirth Plan was canceled and it was transformed by the military into a secret laboratory.

At the deepest part of this underground laboratory, in a brightly lit room, Wei Tian, dressed in a white coat, was conducting a full-body examination of a man wearing only shorts.

”Your physique has reached 600 points. This proves that the newly developed drugs are quite good. Lan Bo, how do you feel?”

The man named Lan Bo nodded slightly. ”Better than ever!”

Wei Tian continued to conduct one test after another on Lan Bo. He asked, seemingly nonchalantly, ”How familiar are you with the skills?”

”It’s alright.”

Although Lan Bo said, ”It’s alright,” from the slight upturn of his lips, one could tell his familiarity with the new skill could no longer be described as merely ”alright”!

”By the way, Wei Tian, I heard that after the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle ends, the military is going to reorganize the order of the War Gods?”

Upon hearing Lan Bo’s question, Wei Tian paused slightly in his actions and then nodded.

”Right now, there are two publicly remaining War God White Tigers—Qin Min and Fang Bai—plus the latecomer Vincent, as well as you and Dugu Jian. We already have five powerful experts at this level. Commander Lin is considering determining the strongest among you to become the military’s War God White Tiger, responsible for guarding Yanjing. The other four will need to be assigned elsewhere!”

”And, the Black Tortoise Project has another capable and qualified manipulator, even more powerful than me! Black Tortoise only needs one master. So, I, the Black Tortoise War God, might be facing retirement soon. Then I might have to be entirely responsible for the research institute.”

Lan Bo looked at Wei Tian’s calm expression and sighed slightly. ”Commander Lin is just kicking you out like that. Are you okay with it?”

Upon hearing that, Wei Tian stopped what he was doing. Under Lan Bo’s horrified gaze, he picked up a large syringe from the side and forcefully inserted it into Lan Bo’s arm.

”HISS... Damn, you’re too ruthless!”

”It’s a blood test. This is a normal procedure. And, you’d better worry about yourself. The Kuangliu Skill System may be simple, but using it well requires a great deal of talent! Be careful not to tarnish the reputation of the first War God White Tiger!”

After saying that, he pushed the needle even deeper. The stimulation made Lan Bo grit his teeth!

”Hey, hey, hey, it looks like I’m losing a lot of blood!”

Wei Tian stated emotionlessly, ”It’s a normal phenomenon!”

”Normal my ass!”

Lan Bo muttered under his breath. The next second, his expression suddenly changed!

Because a voice spoke directly in Lan Bo’s mind: ”The Sequence Member-Ranking Battle will restart in 1 minute. Level 4 professionists who did not participate in the last round of the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle can be transported to the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle treasure land by touching the Exchange Stone Pillar. Also, the host’s capability rating is detected as the highest level; compulsory participation in the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle! Transportation will start in 30 seconds!”

”Wait! Something’s wrong!”

Lan Bo quickly absorbed the information. He stopped Wei Tian from continuing to insert the syringe, then directly removed the various needles from his body. He said to Wei Tian, ”The Sequence Member-Ranking Battle has started again! I don’t know what happened inside. I need to get dressed. Damn, I didn’t bring my clothes here...”

At the same time, in another area of the secret laboratory, a young man with a long sword on his back also learned about the compulsory participation in the Sequence Member-Ranking Battle. His sword-like eyebrows twitched slightly before he quickly calmed down.
